Haha! I didn’t have you in mind but, Honesty Is The Best Policy!

 

It was me. I’m the fat one in here

 

Hahaha Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!

Not calling you fat...just saying you have a hard time saying NO to donuts.

 

People warned me excessively before shoulder surgery. Said that was going to be the mist miserable 6 months of my life. It was seriously not that bad.
The knee was a different game. I’d rather do a shoulder again.

I feel pretty fortunate with my piriformis. I got some sciatica but not a lot. I mostly just felt my left leg was sitting in ice water. For some it can get pretty debilitating.

 

In all honesty, 6% is difficult. The old guy IDR his name, absolutely has. Maybe yodaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaboii or w/e too.

Here is a photo, and Leno I want you to guess my BF%. I will say it may be difficult since I am not shirtless, but, guess.

 

It's kinda like that kid in school who poops his pants first day. For a while people are gonna have a nickname for him and give him shit

 

Dude, I have the stupidest sweet tooth on earth call me fat all you want. I am I used to not be. But I definitely am now. My deadlift belt doesn’t fit currently lmaooo

 

T

was the old dude the be well dude? Or was he the cocktail guy? Same dude?

 

The be well dude left eons ago, the cocktail guy was yodaboi or w.e. 2 different peeps. The OTHER old man is the dude who is the IFBB pro in here - not to be confused with be well dude

 

Nah, I packed on a little tummy during this Shelter In Place BS. It’s like, now I can’t eat 2 cowboy cheeseburgers for lunch and have a beer on the weekends without it catching up to me. I can’t wait to get back on track.... I’m getting “Skinny Fat”.

 

Just messing with you, you’ll do just fine here. I’m cutting from 231 down to 210-15. Sitting at 225 after a month and a half so far.

 

no offense taken

nice man, now is a great time to be a deficit and run a resensitization phase(lower volume) while the gyms are closed. assuming you bodybuild?

 

I’m finding this out as well, recovering from MCL/ACL/meniscus surgery.

lots of side to side band walks, kick backs, and one legged dumbbell deadlifts. I have NEVER worked these areas on my body before and the first week hurt like hell. My PT said to get used to it because I have to keep my core and glutes strong if I want to keep my knee from going again. I’m crazy active and my job requires me to be that way

 

leanest: 180

then decided strongman stuff and bulk up to
195 before covid

208 during this shit

currently back to 200 thankfully.

the eating thing is what sucks for sure. You definitely can eat more while working out and that’s honestly the greatest perk to being a gym rat

 

More of a powerlifting focus. Power building is the term I see thrown around a lot. I’m law enforcement so I need to keep up cardio and endurance as well.

 

Power bottom?

 

Lmao!! Fuck yeah I love it!

 

Recovery still going well over all?

Are you feeling at all close to normal yet?

 

I’d assume they’re also made in Japan to a higher degree than NA builds. Not sure where frames are all sourced from but fit and finish is much higher on Japan made Toyota models compared to NA. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a TR4 or LC frame issue, certainly not in a trend a la Tacoma.

 

Isn’t that @PackCon ?
